Office of Research Security and Ethics

Open scientific and scholarly collaboration between scholars from all over the world is one of the cornerstones of innovation and technological advancement, and University of Cincinnati remains committed to fostering such collaboration. While the vast majority of international affiliations do not present a security risk, the Federal government has increased its attention to research in foreign countries. UC Office of Research Security and Ethics is committed to assisting researchers and faculty in navigating sponsor requirements and regulations.

The course for meeting this requirement is available in the UC online training application CPD (Continuous Professional Development). If you are a UC employee and have not completed the Conflict of Interest Training, you will not be able to complete your Outside Activity Report.
